Already done, Dex.   All accounts & passwords are duplicated.

A possible clue - FIRST is formatted as FAT32 while SECOND is formatted as NTFS. 
 Problem?  I've found I can share SECOND with FIRST, but not vice versa.

To test that, I created a folder on SECOND, then shared it, giving full access to 
EVERYONE.  I could immediately see it from FIRST, and I created a text file in it 
from FIRST.  Back on SECOND, there's the text file.

When I try to connect to FIRST from SECOND, I'm prompted for a username & password. 
 Nothing is accepted.

When I try to connect to SECOND from FIRST , I'm NOT prompted for a username & password. 
  It's just THERE.
